Officially 3 Months Old

Today is August 7, 2010 - which officially marks the day when Greyson turns 3 months old and he is doing GREAT. Michael and I, along with a lot of family and friends, have been enjoying every day with him.
As most of you know, babies change all the time and Greyson is no different. He is getting bigger and bigger, almost 14 pounds, and of course likes milk but LOVES apple juice. Seems that he has a sweet tooth like his mom ;) During a visit from Michael's mom this month, she verified that G does look a lot like Michael when he was a baby except for that nose and chubby cheeks, those seem to be mine.
G is getting so strong, holding his head up on his own with only a little head bobbing ;) He gets some tummy time every day and likes riding around in the baby wrap and Bjorn pack. The physical therapist thinks he might be ready for a Bumbo seat soon so we are on the look out for one. We're hoping some time sitting up will help with the bald ring that has formed around the back of his head where he rubs his head back and forth in his bed. Hope it grows back soon. He is going down for naps pretty well these days and is sleeping for 5-6 hours at a time during the night.
He has really started to get animated with lots of smiles and more jabbering all the time. G loves to stick out his tongue and chewing/sucking on his hands, occasionally gagging himself. He even started to laugh a bit when Grandma B was playing with him on a recent trip to Columbia.
We will be heading back up to Children's Mercy in 2 weeks for his second sclero-therapy treatment and an MRI (Aug 18-20). His buddy has continued to shrink some on the top and we hope the next round works as well. We will add updates when we get to KC so that everyone knows how things are going.
Enjoy the rest of your summer. Stay cool ;)
